Here she met her husband and gave birth to her daughter. Her two sisters also live here now. She says, “People in Singapore are generally very comfortable with diversity and are very welcoming. The taxi drivers, in particular, are very friendly. Ive had some interesting conversations with them, as they often start a conversation.”Italian Nicole Beath has been in Singapore for more than 10 years. She and her husband have just bought a house. They plan to stay at least another five years. She says, “Singapore is a safer city than most. I love it.

They dont realize that space is rapidly becoming an informational desert, and that there will be very few people interested in going into space for any reason whatsoever in the future.In 2050 there will likely be a “Planet Channel” for every planet of the solar system, but most people will be very content to watch what the robots are doing rather than run down Olympus Mons on Mars in person, at 1/3 gravity, as fun as that may sound. By the middle of this century,our “eyes in space” will have run out of almost everything that might be interesting to find. As the astronomer Martin Harwit observed in the excellent and very underappreciated Cosmic Discovery,1981, we have been running out of unique astronomical features to discover for decades.By the mid 21st century there will be a few areas of the physical spectrum(范围), like gravity waves, which will remain underexplored. But virtually everything else will have been modeled well to a first approximation (概算), and our simulation science will be clearly more fruitful at that time than our data driven explorations. Already, Hubble sees to the edge of the universe. What more can we ask? Thats like having a map of Earth. Once you get the first one, you pay a lot less for the next ones.Unlike inner space, the range of possibility for probing(探测), combining and computing with ever more miniaturized (小型化的) matter, outer space rapidly becomes “computationally closed”. There is simply no compelling reason to go to outer space, and every reason to go to inner space, as well discuss more later.语篇解读:本文是议论文。很多人认为,未来我们会到外太空中生活,对此作者意见相反。作者认为,太空中可探索的东西已经不多了,我们应该更加注重对“内部空间”的探索。21By saying “an informational desert”, the author really means an area in which_.Athere is much information in store for usBinformation technology is developing fastCit is very hard to find the necessary informationDthere is no valuable information left解析:选D细节理解题。由文章第一段最后一句可知,人们将失去对太空探索的兴趣,说明前面的“信息沙漠”的含义是“没有信息”可挖掘。22What does the author mainly discuss in the passage?AThe reason why future humans should go into outer space.BThe reason why we shouldnt make much effort in exploring outer space.CThe history and the future of space exploration.DThe difference in outer space exploration and inner space exploration.解析:选B主旨大意题。结合文章第一段和最后一段分析可得到答案,太空中可探索的东西已经不多,因此我们没有必要过多投入到外部太空的探索中。23The author holds the view that _.Ahumans can survive in outer space in the futureBmuch of outer space remains to be discoveredCthere remains very little for us to explore in outer spaceDwe should keep a balance between the exploration of outer and inner space解析:选C推理判断题。由文章第一段的“信息沙漠”和最后一段中的“计算封闭”都可推断出作者的观点。24What will the author talk about in the paragraph closely following the passage?AThe need to explore inner space.BHow to explore inner space.CThe difficulty in exploring inner space.DWhat “computationally closed” means.解析:选A推理判断题。由文章最后一段最后一句可推断出,作者接下来想要表达的内容是:我们有必要更多关注内部空间的探索。BTOKYO If you grow old in Japan, you may expect to be served food by a robot, ride a voicerecognition wheelchair or even possibly hire a nurse in a robotic suit all examples of cuttingedge technology to care for the countrys rapidly graying population.With nearly 22 percent of Japans population already aged 65 or older, businesses here have been rolling out everything from easyentry cars to remotecontrolled beds, fueling a caretechnology market worth some $1.08 billion in 2006, according to industry figures.At a home care and rehabilitation (恢复) convention in Tokyo this week, buyers crowded round a demonstration of Secom Co.s My Spoon feeding robot,which helps elderly or disabled people eat with a spoon and a fitted swiveling (转动的) arm.Operating a joystick (操纵杆) with his chin, developer Shigehisa Kobayashi maneuvered the arm toward a block of soft tofu, deftly (灵巧地) getting the fork to break off a piece. The arm then returned to a preprogrammed position in front of the mouth, allowing Kobayashi to bite and swallow.“Its all about empowering people to help themselves,” Kobayashi said. The Tokyobased company has already sold 300 of the robots, which come with a price tag of $ 3,500. “We want to give the elderly control over their own lives,” he said.The rapidly aging population here has spurred a spate of concerns: a labor shortage, tax falls, financial difficulties in paying the health bills and pensions of large numbers of the elderly.Moreover, a breakdown of family ties in recent years means a growing number of older Japanese are spending their golden years away from the care traditionally provided by children and grandchildren.Thats where cuttingedge technology steps in.语篇解读:在日本,老龄化问题突出,这使尖端科技迅速发展,如机器人、便利小汽车、远程遥控床等。25Shigehisa Kobayashi is the name of _.Aan elderly patientBa robotCthe developer of the robotDthe head of a company解析:选C细节理解题。从文章第四段可知,这是机器人的研发者。26The underlined word “maneuvered” in the fourth paragraph probably means “_”Amoved skillfullyBturned carefullyClifted with effort Dfixed quickly解析:选A词义猜测题。从第四段对这一机器人的描述可知,因为它是专门喂老年人和残疾人食物的机器人,因此机器臂要能转动自如才行。27With the special robots, the elderly in Japan can _.Aput their lives under the control of the robotsBhelp themselvesCsave a lot of money for the governmentDhave their medical bills reduced解析:选B推理判断题。文章倒数第四段有说明“Its all about empowering people to help themselves”。28We can conclude from the passage that _.Athe cuttingedge technology makes it easier for the young and old in Japan to keep tiesBthe cuttingedge technology has changed the traditional family system in JapanCthe elderly in Japan usually live far away from their children and grandchildrenDthe rapidly aging population in Japan has caused many social problems解析:选D推理判断题。根据文章倒数第三段的信息可知,日本老龄化带来了很多社会问题。CPowerful enough to lift 1,000 pounds, capable of going where no man can go and able to stop a flowing oil well, a team of undersea robots have become known as superheroes in the effort to stop the oil pouring into the Gulf of Mexico.The underwater remoteoperated vehicles are able to stand 5,000 pounds of deepsea pressure in the Gulf of Mexico. They can also lift a ton, take photos, and they are the bestequipped vehicles in the world. “They are very active and they are playing a very vital role in everything we do,” BP spokesman Mark Salt said in a statement. “People cant be down there, but these robots can do.”Robots are working 5,000 feet below sea level to help contain the leak (泄漏), which has poured out millions of gallons of oil into the Gulf of Mexico since the Deepwater Horizon, a kind of offshore drilling (钻孔) equipment operated by BP, blew up on April 20, killing 11 workers.The cameras that provide the data are attached to the robots as they work around the leaking site. They made news this week when one robot bumped into a cap that had been collecting some of the oil, forcing BP to remove it for about 10 hours and leaving the flow into the Gulf unchecked. However, theres been only one other problem in two months, despite their demanding tasks.The most popular remoteoperated vehicle is known as the “ROV” and is being used in the project. Its 11.5 feet long and weighs 8,000 pounds. It has humanlike arms and its wrists can work continuously like a drill. Jeffrey Harris, an employee from Oceaneering International Inc., which provided about 14 robots to work in the Gulf, said, “Its like a construction worker, but it is doing one of the most demanding jobs in the world.”29According to the passage, undersea robots are being used to _.Atake photos along the seaside beachBdo experiments on deepsea pressureCcollect as much of the oil from the oil well as possibleDhelp stop the oil flowing into the Gulf of Mexico解析:选D细节理解题。根据第一段内容可知,水下机器人的主要任务是阻止墨西哥湾的原油进一步泄漏。30What do we know from the passage?AUndersea robots play an important role in stopping the flow of oil.BAn undersea robot in the Gulf of Mexico weighs 1,000 pounds.CUndersea robots can do whatever they are asked to.DThe Deepwater Horizon is also an undersea robot.解析:选A推理判断题。根据文章第二段中Mark Salt所言可知,水下机器人在堵漏过程中起到很重要的作用。31Which of the following statements is NOT true about the “ROV”?AIt is doing a difficult job.BIt weighs 5,000 pounds.CIts just like a construction worker.DIts a popular remoteoperated robot.解析:选B细节理解题。由最后一段中“Its 11.5 feet long and weighs 8,000 pounds.”可知B项正确。32What is the passage mainly about?AAn accident that happened in the Gulf of Mexico.BHuman beings new relationship with robots.CA wonderful job done by a team of undersea robots.DThe “ROV”, a popular humanlike robot on sale.解析:选C主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了在墨西哥湾原油泄露事件后,人们使用深海机器人阻止原油进一步扩散的事件,故C项最符合文意。DNow scientists have discovered the first hard evidence that the animals actually behave like their masters, too. Just like children, they adopt a “look and learn” approach which means they can mimic humans actions when going about canine (犬的) tasks.Biologists and psychologists at the universities of Vienna and Oxford designed an experiment to test the theory that dogs do have the ability to copy what they see, using a simple wooden box. In the study, 10 owners showed their dogs how to open the wooden box, sometimes using their heads to push a handle and sometimes using their hands.In the first part of the test, five dogs were rewarded with a piece of sausage for copying their owners actions. The other five were rewarded with food for not copying, and using other methods. With each dog the experiment was repeated hundreds of times, and the time taken for a dog to get it “right” on 85 percent of attempts (17 goes out of 20) was recorded. The dogs encouraged to mirror their owners reached this point almost three times sooner, on average, than those rewarded for not copying them.In the second part of the test, all the dogs were only rewarded for copying the method their owners used. The five dogs previously rewarded for copying their owners reached the 85 percent mark more than twice as quickly as the other five.Writing in a paper published today in Proceedings of the Royal Society, they concluded: “Like humans, dogs cannot help imitating (模仿)actions they see.” Going further, they said: “The results suggest that the imitative behavior of dogs is shaped more by their developmental interactions with humans than by their evolutionary history of domestication (驯化)”Caroline Kisko, from the Kennel Club, said: “A dogs behavior is influenced much like that of a child; learning right from wrong and adopting similar patterns of behavior. We hope that owners understand the importance of their actions and use this knowledge to set good examples and therefore positively influence the behavior of their pets.”语篇解读:本文是科普说明文。研究发现,狗能够模仿主人的行为,因此研究者建议,主人应该多从积极的方面影响自己的宠物。33What does the passage mainly tell us?ADogs can use simple tasks.BDogs are really intelligent animals.CMasters can influence their dogs positively.DDogs behave like their masters.解析:选D主旨大意题。综合分析文章可知,研究者通过实验证明,狗会模仿主人的行为。34The last paragraph suggests that _.Aa vicious man can raise a vicious dogBdogs always behave positivelyCdogs can be influenced by other men besides their mastersDdogs are the best kind of pets解析:选A推理判断题。文章最后一段说明,狗的行为受主人的影响,主人应该给狗树立良好的榜样,狗也会有积极的行为。反之,如果狗的主人凶恶,狗也会变得凶恶。35The underlined word “mimic” in the first paragraph probably means “_”Aunderstand BcopyCcount Djoin in解析:选B词义猜测题。根据画线词前面的信息“Just like children, they adopt a look and learn approach”可知,狗会像小孩一样模仿主人的行为。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。_36_Selfworth is
